Product Information
Due to their self-retaining design, these press-fit ball plungers can be securely installed in an ordinary drilled hole. The slotted end of the thermoplastic body expands to compensate for hole tolerances up to .008" oversize. Sturdy shoulder provides a fixed seating position and positively resists detent force. Installation hole can be counterbored to recess the shoulder. Available in four sizes, from 3/16 to 1" diameter.
Application Information
Self-Retaining Ball Plungers can often be installed by hand, due to the body's flexible design. Self-Retaining Ball Plungers can be installed in a plain hole, with the shoulder exposed, or slightly counterbored for flush installation.
